Tasting Notes
Vinous 93
Perhaps the most famous of the Dagueneau cuvees, the 2018 Silex is flowing and accessible on entry, but then it coils and tightens. The silex (flint) soil gives firmness, imbuing structure and steely tension. Power and concentration combine, providing an almost waxy texture on the finish. Flavors of spiced apples, almonds and pastry linger. It’s just not quite as long as expected. Tasted over three days.
